Actively thinking of sellling my P1 now and getting something more frugal. Top of the list is the Golf GT TDI. I'm looking at 1998 ish model with 110 bhp. £5500-£6000. Reason being I'm a bit fed up or the running costs, and considering I'm doing a motorway commute most of the time it's a bit pointless having the Subaru.


I have read that on all the VW SEAT SKODA diesel engined 1.9s of that age has a problem with the turbo cutting out and to run properly again, the engine has to be restarted. Any other problems?

Anybody with a gt want a P1?

i was going to do the same but found a mint 2001 ex fleet passat tdi 130 sport fully loaded for £7700.

Having tested both the Passat is much the better looking, handling and specced car and the pd130 can be revo'd to nearly 300lb/ft for £500 and still get 50mpg.

6-speed box also.

i came from a 1998 gt tdi 110 to a P1. if that'll do. i had no problems with the golf and i put 11000 miles on it in 6 months and they were 11000 very hard miles!!!!!! , if i change i will probebly go back to a golf gt tdi but it will be a 150bhp cause they are awesome.

ps i no what you mean about the running costs on average it takes £100 a week in fuel alone
